Took the solar telescope to a local park in Coventry this morning to watch the eclipse. Loads of families and dog walkers came over to join in.

Last summer, 2 UG Physics students (Gillian and Gabbie) designed some amazing games for us. Over the last 8 months, we have taken them to 3 schools, 2 Brownie groups, 1 Scout group and 1 Guide group (over 200 kids). Today, I am showing them off at the @warwickengages conference.

In this new paper, Bogdan Hnat used four spacecraft to characterize the magnetic topology inside a reconnection region, providing insights into how reconnection works on electron scales, which is important as such events impact the near-Earth environment rdcu.be/dry7c

Check out this new paper led by CFSA PhD student Xueyi Wang, which uses wavelets to determine the power at different frequencies in Parker Solar Probe data, highlighting how turbulence in the solar wind varies with distance from the Sun. doi.org/10.1051/0004-6…

More new research involving CFSA's Richard Dendy, which uses AI and ICE to infer the spatial and velocity distributions of fusion-born alpha particles. This provides useful info on the reactivity and energy budget at different locations within a plasma.

This new paper by CFSA's Richard Dendy, which could impact the design of future fusion devices, demonstrates that energy can be transferred between particles injected into the system to induce fusion and left-over products of previous fusion reactions. journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/1…

CFSA's Ravi Desai is leading a new ESA funded mission concept that aims to understand the impact of space weather on Earth's upper atmosphere. Very exciting! @WarwickCSDA Find out more here: warwick.ac.uk/newsandevents/…

We're hoping for some sunshine so the scouts can see the Sun

Check out this new work, led by Sihui Zhong, a CFSA PhD student, @WarwickPhysics. Their observations of waves in the solar corona may explain why it is so unexpectedly hot.

New observations of the mechanisms that heat the Sun’s corona, known to be more than two orders of magnitude hotter than the surface, are presented in @NatureComms. The findings may improve our understanding of what makes the Sun’s corona so hot. go.nature.com/3ECjOTU

We love hosting schools so students can see what it's like to be an undergraduate student & study #Physics at #university. Our #outreach officer Ally hosted a group who spent the day doing real-life experiments & chatting to our academics.

Check out this new paper from CFSA's Dmitrii Kolotkov and Valery Nakariakov, in collaboration with @arreguitxoria. This paper came about after @arreguitxoria's visit in Nov. 2022 and uses Bayesian evidence to consider different models for coronal waves. arxiv.org/abs/2307.02439
